The Politics and Possibilities of Virtual Reality

Join Overland‘s resident tech-genius and poet Benjamin Laird, experimental storyteller Mez Breeze, and writer and VR enthusiast Mark Riboldi to boldly go where no writers have gone before: a panel examining the history and present of VR taking place in virtual space!

So satisfy your Matrix-spurred curiosity with this free event, as part of the 2018 Digital Writers Festival, and learn what happens when we finally go beyond imagining to immersing ourselves in alternative realities.

Various and easy ways to join this event:

Attend in virtual space! For this you’ll need a compatible device (Google Daydream, Gear VR, Oculus Go, etc) and a free account. Find out how on AltspaceVR.

If that all sounds too much for your first foray into VR, watch the YouTube stream instead! You’ll hear the discussion, can ask questions, and will have a window onto the Overland+DWF VR space. Watch via the DWF website from 7pm.
